The phrase “airport hotel” is one we often catch ourselves using as shorthand for the uninspired and uncomfortable places that are the antithesis of everything we at Tablet hold dear. So it’s kind of a big deal when one of them turns out to be as sleek, stylish and thoughtfully put together as any European-capital design boutique. Well, when the facts change, as some great man or another said, we change our minds. And if airport hotels in Los Angeles or elsewhere start looking more like the Custom Hotel, then we’re going to be eating a lot of crow.
Little danger, for now. The Custom is just about one-of-a-kind; it’s still a concrete tower, not much could be done about that, but it’s one with a poolside bar and cabanas, an attractive wood-paneled lobby bar, even a DJ lounge and an outdoor fire pit. And the rooms: nobody minds a tower hotel when they get a look at the views, and the bedrooms come equipped with all the necessities, including free wi-fi and iPod attachments. It’s a good deal, a long way more stylish than it needs to be, and if you don’t need to be within walking distance of much of anything, it’s not at all inconvenient — and this being LA, you probably weren’t planning on walking anywhere anyway.
How to get there:
Custom Hotel is a 5-minute drive from Los Angeles International Airport and offers a complimentary door-to-door airport shuttle, available from 5AM to 2AM. The shuttle service is available on request, so please call the hotel at +1 310.645.0400 when you arrive at Los Angeles International. Parking is also available at the property for $20 USD per night.

What I liked:
The design was really cool. We enjoyed the ambiance of the rooms. The service at the desk and valet were great as well.
What the hotel could do better:
The rooms had a number of very odd noises - gurgles from the next door neighbor's toilet flushing, noise through the vents, etc. And my mother's room was missing a topsheet, she called to the desk to get one and the maintenance guy brought it up but refused to make the bed for her...odd. The front desk compensated by knocking quite a bit off of the bill, which was nice.

What I liked:
Rooms were clean and in good shape, but bare and awfully neutral. Good pool scene and the bar/restaurant make the place worthwhile. Staff were great.
What the hotel could do better:
A touch of character and color in the rooms would be nice.
